Chapter 78
Wen Boli's funeral was held very grandly. Compared to the simplicity before his death, his funeral was definitely exhausted.
On the day of the funeral, the sound of suona shook the sky, and the funeral procession was vast. The Fu Mansion, which was several streets across, could even hear the movement.
However, although the scene was big, no one really mourned the dead. This funeral that had been making a whole day in Sifang Town was more like a deliberate performance.
Fu Tian had heard the news from the servants' inquiry and quickly threw it behind his mind, because there were more important things waiting for him.
After returning from Xingdong County, he had never concealed his intimacy with Chu Xiangtian. Anyone with a discerning eye could see the relationship between them. After several days, his mother should look for him.
That's right, he has been planning this after he came back. He first did not hide the relationship between the two and let his mother notice it himself. In this way, the mother always had time to verify and confirm. When they confirmed their relationship and came to him, at least a few days later, the intense emotions at the beginning would always calm down a little - this was the little abacus that Fu Tian quietly made in his heart.
In fact, Fu Tian was right. After lunch that day, Fu Youqin stopped him, "Youling, come with me."
Chu Xiangtian frowned slightly and glanced at Fu Tian. In the past few days, he had vaguely noticed Fu Tian's intentions. He asked several times that he had been fooled by this ghost.
"I'll go with you."
"Mom didn't call you again, why are Baba running over and making people angry?" Fu Tian quietly pulled his little finger and shook it, then followed Fu Youqin's steps with his hands behind his back.
The mother and son went to the small pavilion in the center of the lake one after another. Although Fu Youqin was not very happy, she was her son who had been in love with her for more than ten years. She was reluctant to blame her too much. Even the place where she talked was chosen was the not so serious little pavilion in the lake.
Fu Youqin sat down first, Fu Tian pleased her and poured her a cup of tea, "What do you want to say to me?"
"Stop pretending to be good with me." Fu Youqin nodded his forehead with anger, "What's wrong with you and Chu Xiangtian?"
"Did you see it?" Fu Tian touched his nose and said without much guilt.
After taking a sip of tea, Fu Youqin glanced at him lightly, "Aren't you waiting for me to see? Is it your idea or his?"
"He doesn't know mine." Fu Tian said immediately.
Fu Youqin wanted to be angry but couldn't get angry at her behaved son, so she could only say calmly: "How long have you been together? Are you just protecting her as a treasure?"
Fu Tian murmured in a low voice, "I don't even protect the person I like, I'm still a man."
Fu Youqin glared at her eyes, "What did you say?"
"Nothing is nothing," Fu Tian sat beside her with a coquettish look, hugging her arm and swaying, "But I just like him, it has nothing to do with the length of time."
After sighing deeply, Fu Youqin looked at her son beside her. The boy had gradually lost his childishness over the past year, and grew taller and grew up. He was no longer the soft child who was crying in her arms and crying, but a man who could carry the entire Fu family.
"Do you really like him?"
Fu Tian nodded seriously.
Fu Youqin asked again, "Do you know who he is?" She still remembered the token that Chu Xiangtian took out when he was staying in the Fu family. The bandits in Xishan Village were just a layer of disguise. If Fu Tian didn't even know his true identity, how could the two of them really like it?
This time, Fu Tian was silent for a while. Fu Youqin thought he would say something, but Fu Tian seemed to look around and then whispered: "Actually... he is the current emperor's younger brother, King Yu."
Fu Youqin's brow jumped, no longer as relaxed as before, and said in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
Fu Tian had to say again about Chu Xiangtian's incident as a bandit and investigated the case. Fu Youqin's brows became tighter and tighter. She only knew that Chu Xiangtian was from the court, but she didn't expect that he was the prince of the Great Chu. This identity was too out of her expectations.
"When did you know?"
Fu Tian said that he knew about the night after the results were released.
This time, the wrinkles between Fu Youqin's eyebrows became deeper and he gently rubbed his head, "He is a royal person... I agree. Can he be with a man on the other end...?"
Although there have been men who have formed brothers in the folk who live a life of marriage, they are all families who cannot afford to marry each other. Any family with a certain status cannot tolerate their children doing such a humiliating thing.
What's more, it's the royal family.
"He will solve the obstacles over there." Fu Tian pursed his lips.
In fact, he was not too worried about this. No matter what he did, Chu Xiangtian was always reliable. It was like a mountain. Although he was silent, he could always rely on him. Even though he had not said it clearly, Fu Tian could vaguely feel that the resistance on his side did not seem to be very large.
So he said, "I believe in him."
Fu Youqin no longer knew how many times she had sighed. Her son's temper was completely following her. When she decided to marry Wen Boli, she also said this to her parents with a firm attitude. However, her heart changed slowly but her old friends' hearts. No one knew whether the lover who was swearing to speak love would change his heart many years later.
She had experienced the hardships herself and took the wrong path, so she didn't want Fu Tian to go there once.
He lowered his eyes slightly and patted the boy's head with a firm expression. Fu Youqin said gently: "You like him, but I won't stop you. Who has never been frivolous when I was young?"
"But marriage is not just about two people's affairs, but also about two families. Mom hopes that you can stay more time, think carefully, and not follow the old path of your mother."
"I know." Fu Tian hugged her gently and comforted her silently, "Thank you, mom."
After the mother and son talked about each other, Fu Tian sent Fu Youqin back to the house to rest. As soon as he came out of the yard, he saw the man waiting at the door.
Men are always wearing black outfits and stand quietly when they don’t speak, like a long gun with a strong anger on their backs. Even if they don’t say anything, they make people feel afraid.
However, as soon as Fu Tian came out, the bitter breath lingering around him suddenly dissipated, as if he had passed the middle of winter and entered a warm and pleasant spring.
Chu Xiangtian bent the corners of his lips, and smiled at the end of his eyes, "Is the talk finished?"
Fu Tian put his hands behind his back and said "Hmm" with a serious expression.
Chu Xiangtian's heart skipped a beat, but he still smiled and rubbed his head, comforted him: "It's okay, I'll find a way. One day my aunt will agree."
"Well, you have to show off." The heavy feeling of pretending was dissipated, and Fu Tian smiled, "Otherwise, my mother wouldn't agree to you enter the Fu family."
Chu Xiangtian, who was thinking about how to comfort him, was stunned, and then suddenly came over, "Auntie doesn't object?"
Fu Tian glanced at him and said angrily: "Mom is very dissatisfied with your daughter-in-law's identity and said she should observe more."
This was much better than he expected. Chu Xiangtian smiled and led him back, "Then I'll find a way to satisfy her."
Fu Tian's hand was wrapped in his hand, and it became warm in a short while. It was almost November and the weather was getting colder, but the two of them held their hands together, but they didn't feel cold at all.
October leaves quietly, November comes with the cold wind, the heat in the air completely dissipates, leaving only the bleak trees and the cold wind.
Fu Tian changed into a warm thick cotton coat. When he went out, he was always wrapped in Chu Xiangtian like a round bear. The winter in the south is not cold, but the slight coldness can penetrate into the cracks of the clothes into the human bones.
When winter first began, Fu Tian had a cold wind. After that, Chu Xiangtian was always used to wrapping a thick cloak when he went out again.
After Fu Tian left the house this day, Zhou Chuanqing, who had been hiding for a long time, suddenly came over.
He had just returned from the garden. The wind was strong in the garden. His lips turned blue after tossing for a while, but the smile on his face could not be suppressed.
Chu Xiangtian looked at him with a slanted look, "Stop laughing, do you know what you look like now?" Before Zhou Chuanqing could answer, he continued, "Like the fool who always drools and laughs whenever he sees people on the East Street."
Zhou Chuanqing was not bothered. It seemed that there was a happy event. He happily took out a piece of paper from his sleeve bag and showed it to Chu Xiangtian.
The paper was half a palm-sized, tied with a red ribbon above, and two rows of characters were written in small characters on the fly head. Chu Xiangtian was about to look closely, but he took it back like a treasure. He had only time to see the two different characters above. The familiar one was Zhou Chuanqing's character, but the other one belonged to him.
"What's this?"
Zhou Chuanqing looked proud, "Do you know who wrote the poem I wrote?"
Chu Xiangtian could guess with his toes, "Which Miss Fu's fill it out?"
Zhou Chuanqing nodded and shook him a look that was smart.
There is an old tree in the garden, which grows on the necessary road between the front and back yards. Fu Shuyue often sits under the tree. After seeing it a few times from afar, Zhou Chuanqing tried to write the poems he made on paper and hang them on the tree with red ribbons.
There were more and more paper hanging on the tree, but Fu Shuyue never responded once. When Zhou Chuanqing didn't say anything, he was wandering under the tree, but accidentally found a row of delicate small characters on a piece of paper.
